Q: I'm not intersted in the features mentioned above, does it have any features that'll make me want to switch?Ī: Depends on what you want from a browser, it has built-in adblocking (But if you want to disable it on a specific link, it's way too much clicking to get to that on/off switch), it has built-in vpn (just a proxy, really bad as I heard, please use real VPNs). Also, it has Workspaces, it's basically having multiple windows open with each one containing multiple tabs, but in one single window with buttons on the side pannel to switch between them, you can set it up to have a work workplace and another for competitive reddit browsing amongst other non-work activities for example. also, laptops with TN panels have pretty abysmal viewing angles, so with dark mode enabled, it's really hard to know which tab I'm on with Chrome or Edge, Opera GX has that nailed with the line only going on the active tab, example.

I have been using this browser as my daily driver for few weeks now, here's my opinion:
